ADMINISTRATOR
Joel R. Hanson
At our meeting of December 20, 1995, we will need to adopt the
1996 budget. This year we are showing budgeted amounts based on
a transfer from 10% gambling funds. I have also allowed for
$10,000 worth of expenditures assuming there will be additional
consulting services utilized in the upcoming year.
Another action we will have to take in this regard is the
election of officers. On a separate sheet, current officers have
been listed for your review.
Lastly, the City will have to approve the execution of agreements
between the EDA and the developers of the Market Place Shopping
Center. A number of documents governing this transaction have
been prepared by Briggs & Morgan. Due to the shear volume of
these agreements, I have not included them with this agenda.
Copies are available at City Hall should you wish to review them.
We have included a resolution authorizing the execution of a
pledge agreement and loan agreement for your review. Other
documents we will need to approve and authorize for signature
include a Development Agreement and a Subordination, Attorney,
and Non - disturbance Agreement.
Copies of these agreements have been forwarded to the City
Attorney for review. Further changes are expected in the drafts
we have before us. Given that the closing is planned for
December 27, 1995, we will need to authorize execution at this
meeting.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of Donovan Construction, Inc., we request your consideration of the enclosed PUD and conditional
use permit application.
Donovan Construction, Inc. currently leases an office at 100 S. Owasso Blvd E., and owns an equipment yard
located at 53 S. Owasso Blvd. E. Donovan is seeking to increase the efficiency of their operations as well as
lower their overhead costs by locating their office on the site of the equipment yard.
At this time, Donovan's new parent company (as of December 31, 1994) does not yet have clear and clean title
to 53 S. Owasso Blvd. E. However, this site was part of the acquisition and it is only a matter of time until the
new parent company receives title to the land. It is the parent company's firm intention to start construction of
an estimated 2,400 square foot permanent office at 53 S. Owasso Blvd. E. within one year of receiving title. In
the interim, Donovan proposes to locate an estimated 720 square feet of temporary modular office space at 53
S. Owasso Blvd. E.
It is our understanding that the conditional use permit for the temporary office will require paved parking areas.
Donovan is satisfied with the parking available at 53 S. Owasso Blvd. E., and we respectfully request a deferral
of the parking requirement. We understand that this has been granted in the past, on the basis that there will be
sufficient parking available for future paving. As you can see from the site plan, there is plentiful parking
available on the west side of the site.
At the suggestion of the City Administrator and after agreement by the City Planner, we propose to combine the
application for both offices at this time. The intent is to save the City and Donovan time and money.
Please contact us at the above fax number or address should you have any questions 'regarding Donovan's
application. Thank you.
Sincerely,
THE PIEPER COMPANIES

CITY OF LITTLE CANADA PUD APPLICATION
2. The intended use proposed for 53 S. Owasso Blvd. E. is a 2,500 square foot brick -front, masonry
office building adjacent to the company's equipment yard. Prior to construction of this permanent
office (which is contingent on delivery of clean and clear title to 53 S. Owasso Blvd. E., as part of
the Donovan Construction Inc. acquisition this past year), temporary modular space is proposed to
serve as the office facility.
This PUD would promote the public welfare by reducing traffic between the current office at 100 S.
Owasso Blvd. E. and the equipment yard at 53 S. Owasso Blvd. E. The PUD would also improve
safety and security in the area, as there would always be someone at the equipment yard.
Furthermore, the PUD will serve only to improve the neighborhood and upgrade the specific property
in question, as there would be an attractive and tax - paying structure added to the site. Public facilities
at this time are adequate for Donovan Construction.
Finally, approval of this PUD application will keep people employed and property improved in Little
Canada. Donovan Construction, Inc. has been located in Little Canada for 28 years.

PLANNING REPORT
TO: Little Canada Planning Commission
FROM: Madhulika Singh /Stephen Grittman
DATE: 8 December 1995
RE: Little Canada - Donovan PUD
FILE NO: 758.09 - 95.21
BACKGROUND
On behalf of Donovan Construction, Inc., the Pieper Companies is requesting PUD
approval through conditional use permit for the construction of a permanent office building
and an interim use of a temporary modular office space at 53 South Owasso Boulevard
East.
The existing property is zoned 1 -1, Light Industrial and is a non - conforming lot, due to lack
of public street frontage. A planned unit development/ conditional use permit is required
to revise the site layout to conform to the new addition.
Donovan Construction Inc. currently leases an office a 100 South Owasso Boulevard East,
and owns an equipment yard located at 53 South Owasso Boulevard East. Donovan is
seeking to increase the efficiency of their operations as well as lower their overhead costs
by locating their office on the site of the equipment yard.
The applicants suggest that the PUD would promote the public welfare by reducing traffic
between the current office at 100 South Owasso Boulevard East and the equipment yard
at 53 South Owasso Boulevard East. The PUD would also improve safety and security in
the area, as there would always be someone at the equipment yard.
At this time, Donovan's new parent company (as of 31 December 1994) does not yet have
clear and clean title to 53 South Owasso Boulevard East. However, this site was part of
the acquisition and it is apparently only a matter of time until the new parent company
receives title to the land. It is the parent company's intention to start construction of an
Page 13
5775 Wayzata Blvd. • Suite 555 • St. Louis Park, MN 55416 • (612) 595- 9636•Fax. 595 -9837
estimated 2,400 square foot permanent office at 53 South Owasso Boulevard East within
one year of receiving title. In the interim, Donovan proposes to locate an estimated 720
square feet of temporary modular office space at 53 South Owasso Boulevard East. The
applicant is requesting a PUD permit for both the permanent and temporary office space
at this time.
Attached for reference:
Exhibit A - Existing Site Plan
Exhibit B - Proposed Site Plan with Permanent Office
Exhibit C - Proposed Permanent Office Elevation
Exhibit D - Proposed Site Plan With Modular Office
Exhibit E - Proposed Elevation With Modular Office
ISSUES ANALYSIS
Off - Street Parking Requirement. The following minimum number of off- street parking
space shall be provided as per the Zoning Ordinance:
1. New Office Building: Three spaces plus at least one space for each 200 square
feet of floor area. The proposed new office building will have an area of 2,500
square feet. Therefore, the total number required for the new office area will be 16.
2. Existing Manufacturing, Fabricating Building: One space for each 350 square feet
of floor area, plus one space for each company owned truck (if not stored inside
principal building). The existing fabricating building is 3,500 square feet, therefore,
the total number required for this existing building is ten.
3. Existing Storage Building: One space per each 1,000 square feet of floor area, plus
one space for each employee on maximum shift and one space for each company
owned truck (if not stored inside principal buildings). The floor space area of the
storage building is 3,500 square feet. Therefore, the minimum requirement for this
storage building should be three.
4. Parking Surface: All areas intended to be utilized for parking space for five or more
vehicles and associated driveways should be paved with, but not limited to, asphalt,
bituminous or concrete in order to control dust and drainage. All parking area plans
shall be submitted to the Building Inspector for his review and shall be subject to
his approval.
All parking stalls shall be marked with white or yellow painted lines not less than
two inches wide.
Page 14
5. Curbing and Landscaping: All open off- street parking areas shall have a perimeter
continuous curb barrier around the entire parking lot.
6. Exterior Storage: Any exterior storage area is grassed or surfaced to control dust.
The storage area will not encroach upon required parking space or required loading
space as required by the Ordinance.
The minimum number of parking requirement for the site will be 29. The applicants have
requested for a deferral on implementation of the parking lot. It is our office's
recommendation that the applicants deliver a site plan that shows the location of the
required number of parking spaces. Since the applicant indicates that only eight
employees will occupy the site, a total development of ten spaces could be approved
under the PUD, with the remaining 19 spaces shown on the plan as "proof of parking"
area. The City could require additional parking development if demand warrants it.
Setbacks. Under the PUD, no buildings within the project are to be nearer to another
building than one -half the sum of the building height of the two buildings. The proposed
location of new construction does not appear to meet the requirement. The building
location should be revised to meet the distance requirements between two buildings as per
Zoning Ordinance requirements and meet all Building Code requirements of fire safety and
other such issues.
The front and side yard restrictions at the periphery of the PUD site at a minimum shall be
the same as imposed in the respective districts (1 -1).
Setbacks:
Front Yard:
Side Yard:
Not less than 40 feet.
Not less than 15 feet on any one side, nor less
than 40 feet on the side yard.
The proposed layout meets the setback requirements.
Public Facilities. The public facilities on 53 South Owasso Boulevard East at this time

Based on the previous review, our office recommends approval of the following:
A. Interim use of a 720 square foot temporary modular office space.

approves the project plan and a building permit is obtained prior to beginning work
on the site.
5. A development contract is executed indicating the site improvements, including
parking, to be made and the timing for replacement of the temporary building within
the permanent office.
CONCLUSION
Based on the preceding review, our office recommends approval of the PUD /conditional

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Fahey & Members of the City Council
FROM: Joel Hanson, City Administrator
DATE: December 15, 1995
RE: 1996 Budget
Pursuant to Truth in Taxation requirements, we will be holding a
public hearing to consider the adoption of the 1996 budget. The
budget document is included under separate cover and is in final
form subject to any actions we may take at the workshop to be
held on Monday, December 18, 1995.
Attached to this memo is the current status of tax levies. Also
included are the resolutions reducing the debt levies to
correspond with our certification process. You will note that
the fund indicates tax levy allocations for the General Fund,
Capital Improvement Fund and Debt Service Funds with a net levy
increase of 2.83 %. (Same amount as discussed at Truth in
Taxation hearing.) We will combine these three levies into one
General Fund levy based the recommendation received from the
City's Auditor. This is done to preserve our tax levy
capabilities if the State Legislature were to impose levy limits
on us again.
We also need to ratify salary recommendations. The salary
schedules are included as part of the budget document.
We need to approve the Capital Improvement portion of the budget.
These documents are included in the draft budget under separate
cover. Actions taken at Monday's workshop could modify these
sheets.
Lastly, we should approve the 10% Committee's recommendations.
Given the uncertain status regarding the old fire hall project,
the 10% Committee has only recommended one item for funding at
this time. That is the Fire Department's purchase of the Hurst
Rescue Tool for $15,000. Once more information becomes available
regarding the status of the old fire hall remodeling project, the
Committee will then meet and complete their prioritization of
other funding requests.

RE: Frattalone Request for Burning Permit

Joel R. Hanson
Attached is a request from Frank Frattalone for a burning permit
to dispose of trees which were cut down in the vicinity of
approximately 3000 Centerville Road. You will note that Mr.
Frattalone has been informed of tree preservation ordinance
requirements for replacement of downed trees.
I contacted both the PCA and the DNR regarding this request. The
PCA indicated that there involvement is limited to smokestack -
type emissions. The DNR indicated that they would need to issue
a burning permit. The DNR recommended that the City Council
first review the issue. If the Council has no problem approving
a permit, in all likelihood, the DNR will issue a permit.
However, if there are alternative means available to dispose of
all or some of the wood, that will have to be done. Attached is
a letter from Philip Vieth of the DNR outlining the conclusions
he reached after visiting the site.
Also attached for your information is a copy of the State Statute
dealing with burning permits.
If the City Council chooses to approve a burning permit for Mr.
Frattalone, we would recommend the following requirements be met:
*A11 requirements under State Statutes;
*All requirements of the DNR;
*All requirements made by the Fire Chief and Fire Marshall;
*Specific dates and times during which burning will occur;
*24 hours advanced notice to the City Fire Department and
Ramsey County Sheriff's Department prior to the burn in
addition to a one hour verbal follow -up notice to the
Ramsey County Sheriff's Dispatcher prior to the
Page 41
commencement of burning activities;
*At least one employee of Frattalone Excavating must be
actively participating in the burning and have
available necessary suppression equipment and water
supply to manage the situation. Radio contact with
back -up should also exist.
*Remaining cinders must be disposed of in an appropriate
manner.

I am requesting to be heard by the City Council for a
tree burning permit on my commercial development in Little
Canada called Eli Farm. The location is approximately
3000 Centerville Road.
I will be at least 800 feet from the closest house in
any direction. I will use a large air input burner into the
tree pile to eliminate smoke.
All trees will be from on site and fire will be manned
with stand by equipment at 100% of fire time.
I have checked with the P.C.A. and D.N.R. They stated
that it is allowable by State Statute # 88.17, burning of
vegetative matter. It is now up to the City and Fire Chief
or Marshall. A map is enclosed. Time needed to be about
2 to 3 days.
Sincerely,
Frank M. Frattalone

It has come to our attention that you have cut down the majority
of trees located on the property at approximately 3000
Centerville Road in order to get this property ready for
development. Please be advised that the City's Tree Preservation
Ordinance would apply to this property. At the time of
development, you will be required to comply with the maximum
requirements of this ordinance since an inventory was not done of
the trees on the property. The ordinance maximum is thirty
caliper inches per acre of aggregate disturbed area. It is the
City's estimate that three acres of property was disturbed.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
1 R. Hanson
City Administrator

governing jurisdiction.
8. In all zoning districts, all yards not surfaced for
driveway or parking shall be landscaped according
to the approved plan prior to the issuance of an
occupancy permit or a financial security, as
determined by the City Building Official, shall be
posted with the City to assure completion of such
work.
9. Where any business or industrial use abuts property
zoned for residential use, the business or industry
shall provide screening along the boundary of the
residentially zoned property in accordance with
this ordinance. A similar screen shall be provided
by a multiple family residential project where a
multiple family residential use abuts property
zoned for single family residential use.
10. Parking Lot Landscaping.
a. Off - street parking facilities of five (5) or
more spaces and all loading facilities shall
be fully screened from abutting residential
property and public rights -of -way to a minimum
height of three and one -half (3 1/2) feet for
parking areas and six (6) feet for loading
areas.
b. Within off - street parking areas of fifty (50)
or more stalls, irrigated, landscaped islands
shall be provided at a rate of one island per
fifteen (15) surface spaces or fraction
thereof. For the purposes of this ordinance,
an island shall be required to consist of one
hundred (100) square feet of landscaped
surface. Such islands shall be contained in
raised, curbed beds consistent with parking
lot construction requirements of this
ordinance. It is not the intent of this
paragraph to relieve a project of the
installation of islands which are necessary to
promote the safe and efficient flow of
traffic, regardless of parking lot size.
Significant Tree Preservation and Replacement.
a. Existing Trees. With respect to existing
trees in new developments, all trees on the
site are to be saved which do not have to be
removed for street, buildings, utilities,
-43-
Page 45
drainage or active recreational purposes.
Trees over six (6) inches in diameter that are
to remain are to be marked with a red band and
to be protected with snow fences or other
suitable enclosure prior to any excavation.
The City may further require that the
developer retain a professional forester to
prepare a forest inventory and management plan
for the development, in order to control and
abate any existing or potential shade tree
disease.
Prior to construction, the developer or
contractor shall schedule an on -site
inspection with the Building Official to
identify significant trees to be removed.
Significant trees shall be defined as those
existing trees of six (6) caliper inches or
more, as measured one foot above the existing
grade level. All such trees to be removed to
accommodate the project shall be tagged and
catalogued by size. The landscape plan shall
be required to show replacement of the lost
significant trees on a 100 percent caliper
inch basis, up to a maximum 30 caliper inches
per acre of aggregate disturbed area.
H. Traffic Visibility. On corner lots in all districts, no
structure or planting in excess of thirty (30) inches
above the street center line grade shall be permitted
within a triangular area defined as follows: beginning
at the intersection of the projected property lines of
two intersecting streets, thence thirty (30) feet along
one property line, thence diagonally to a point thirty
(30) feet from the point of beginning.
I. Glare. Any lighting used to illuminate an off-street
parking area, sign or other structure, shall be arranged
as to deflect light away from any adjoining residential
zone or from the public streets. Direct or sky - reflected
glare, where from floodlights or from high temperature
processes such as combustion or welding shall not be
directed into any adjoining property. The source of
lights shall be hooded or controlled in some manner so as
not to light adjacent property. Bare incandescent light
bulbs shall not be permitted in view of adjacent property
or public right -of -way. Any light or combination of
lights which cast light on a public street shall not
exceed one (1) foot candle (meter reading) as measured
from the center line of said street. Any light or
combination of lights which case light on residential
property shall not exceed four (4) foot candles (meter

The objective was to see if there were trees that had

The pile at
There really is no justification to burn the logs that can be cut
from the tree trunks on most of these trees. A land clearer when
they have trees like this, which were mostly Cottonwood with some
Ash, Elm, Maple, and Boxelder should cut out and stack the logs.
They will be able to sell them. Several mills are always looking
for this material.
Actually most of the smaller diameter wood can be used for firewood
by homeowners. Contrary to popular belief the species I mentioned
make acceptable firewood for the home fireplace. If the developer
would advertise in the local newspapers it may be surprising how
much interest there would be by homeowners for firewood.
I contacted Frank and he was very willing to give the wood away and
did not realize that the tree trunks were usable. I explained that
if he would cut the tree trunks into logs and stack them up he
could sell the logs to a sawmill. He was not willing to do that.
I called a sawmill that uses this type of material and they were
very interested in the logs. I gave the sawmill owner Franks phone
number and hopefully they will be able to work out the details on
removing the logs from the pile of wood. If this agreement does
not work out I have other mills that we could contact.
I recommend that we not give a burning permit until at least the
logs are cut from the trees that are to be burned. Hopefully we
can give the process of arranging the removal of the usable wood
some time to work.
Enclosed are some specifications for sawlogs that can be applied to
all species and that most sawmills would be interested in.

MAKING LOGS FROM URBAN TREES MAY 7, 1992
GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR LOGS
DIAMETER: A LOG MUST BE MEASUR.ED•ON THE SMALL END INSIDE BARK TO
DETERMINE THE SCALING DIAMETER AND VOLUME. A sawlog must be at
least 8 inches diameter small end inside bark. Some sawmills may
vary the size log they will take based on species and amount of
cull.
LENGTH: FOR THE MOST PART A LOG NEEDS TO BE AT LEAST 8 FT. 4
INCHES LONG. The four inches is for trim allowance. Some sawmills
are able to saw 6 FT. lengths. If R. R. ties are a product the log
needs to be cut 8 FT. 9 IN. Longer logs are sometimes desirable but
urban trees usually have short trunks.
DEFECT: SWEEP AND OTHER CURVES IN THE LOG
SWEEP AND CROOK ARE TWO OF THE MAIN FACTORS THAT DECREASE TOTAL LOG
VOLUME. AS THE LOG DIAMETER DECREASES, SWEEP OR CROOK BECOMES A
BIGGER FACTOR. A sweepy large diameter log will have so% sawable
volume. A small diameter log with the same amount of sweep may be
an unusable log. Defect is also caused by ring shake, rot, hollow
centers and other factors. Logs with defect that have about 50%
solid volume are still worthwhile to saw. Shake if it can be seen
on the log ends should be deducted heavily from the solid content
of the log. Knots are not volume defects but cause a log to be
lower in quality.
LOG QUALITY: Log quality is based on size, defect and the amount of
knots that can be seen on the bark. Almost all of the urban tree
logs are sawlog quality. Very few of them are veneer quality.
VENEER, is the highest quality log but only the largest diameters,
straightest with few or no bark distortions will meet veneer specs.
If a large volume of veneer is. suspected, call someone to get
further information.
METAL: METAL AND OTHER FOREIGN MATERIA1 IS SOMETIMES FOUND IN
LOGS. Most sawmill operators have had experience with it. It is
their major fear in terms of downtime and equipment breakage.
However, some operators have made a business of sawing logs from
urban areas. Some sawmill operators use hand held metal detectors.
The log supplier and the log user need to decide ahead of time how
to handle this situation when it occurs.
LIMBS MUST BE CUT FLUSH TO THE LOG SURFACE. SWELLED TREE BUTTS,
CROTCHES OR OTHER WOOD THAT IS PROTRUDING AWAY FROM THE NORMAL LOG
TAPER MUST BE CUT OFF.
VOLUME DETERMINATION: Average small end diameter and log length
will give the log volume on the sawlog volume table shown on the
back.

RE: Request for Ordinance Amendment Relating to Licensing of
Massage Parlors
Enclosed is a copy of our current ordinance regarding the
regulation of massage parlors and saunas. Recently, some people
have inquired about this license and have expressed concern with
our $10,000 license fee. A request was made to Kathy to approach
the Council on this matter at our Council meeting on December 20,
1995. To -date, no formal written material has been received from
this person. However, we thought we should include some
information in the event someone is present at Wednesday's
meeting.
From staff's perspective, we have informed the people inquiring
that should someone want to open a sauna or massage parlor as
defined by the ordinance, they would be subjected to the $10,000
license fee. We have also informed them that should another
business want to employ a masseuse or masseurs as an accessory
use, the license fee would likely not apply. It should be kept
in mind that we would consider accessory use to be in conjunction
with a chiropractor, physician, physical therapist, or health
club.
Council Member Morelan has also received some inquiries on this
matter and he may wish to discuss this with the Council as well.
Should any changes be desired in this ordinance, staff would need
the appropriate direction.

RE: Law Enforcement Services Agreement
Attached is a copy of the contract proposed between the City of
Little Canada and Ramsey County for law enforcement services.
This agreement is in essentially the same form as in prior years
with the following notable exceptions:
* The agreement now covers a five year period versus a
annual period.
* Termination of the agreement can occur with 12 months
notice versus a 6 month notice provision in our current
contract.
* Approval of the annual budget estimate has been extended
to December 31. Currently the date is earlier in the month
of December.
* If the municipality does not indicate acceptance of the
budget estimate, the municipality and the county must meet
by January 31 of the budget year in question to reach an
agreement on modifications to service levels provided by the
county that are consistent with the municipalities budget
levels.
Our contract committee has discussed this document for the past
few months. I feel the changes proposed are reasonable in that
greater stability will be provided to the contracting members and
to Ramsey County (5 year agreement and 12 month notice) without
eliminating options for other service providers. Therefore, I
would recommend execution of this agreement subject to any
comments by the City Attorney.
Page 66
AGREEMENT
LAW ENFORCEMENT SERVICES
This is an Agreement between the County of Ramsey
(hereinafter referred to as the "COUNTY "), and the City of
Little Canada (hereinafter referred to as the "MUNICIPALITY "), to
provide law enforcement services to the MUNICIPALITY for the
period commencing January 1, 1996.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the COUNTY has contracted to provide law enforcement
services to the cities of Arden Hills, Gem Lake, Little Canada,
North Oaks, Vadnais Heights and White Bear Township (hereinafter
referred to as the "MUNICIPALITIES "), and it would be
advantageous to the MUNICIPALITY to also contract with the COUNTY
for similar law enforcement services, thereby allowing for the
allocation of overhead and other administrative costs over a
larger population; and
WHEREAS, the parties to this Agreement are desirous of
contracting for the performance by the COUNTY of the hereinafter
described law enforcement functions for and within the political
boundaries of the MUNICIPALITY through the Ramsey County Sheriff;
and
WHEREAS, the COUNTY is agreeable to rendering such services
on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; and
WHEREAS, such contracts are authorized and provided for by
the provisions of Minnesota Statutes Sections 471.59 and 436.05,
and Laws 1959, Chapter 372.
NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION OF the mutual undertakings
set forth herein, the COUNTY and the MUNICIPALITY agree as
follows:
I. SCOPE OF SERVICES
1. The COUNTY agrees, through the Sheriff of the County of
Ramsey, to provide patrol and police protection within
the political boundaries of MUNICIPALITY to the extent
and in the manner hereinafter set forth.
2. Except as otherwise hereinafter specifically set forth,
such services shall only encompass duties and functions
of the type coming within the jurisdiction of and
customarily rendered by the Sheriff of the County of
Ramsey under state statutes.
Page 67
3. The manner and standards of performance, the discipline
of officers, and other matters incident to the provision
of services under this Agreement, and the control of
personnel so employed, shall be subject solely to the
control of the COUNTY. In the event of a dispute between
the parties as to the extent of the duties and functions
to be rendered hereunder, or the level or manner of
performance of such service, the determination thereof
made by the Sheriff of the COUNTY shall be final and
conclusive as between the parties hereto, subject
however, to the provisions of Section V.3. herein. In
the event the MUNICIPALITY, through its elected body or
authorized agent, notifies the COUNTY that is
dissatisfied with the assignment of personnel for the
performance of services under this Agreement and requests
a change in personnel, the COUNTY shall make every effort
to effect a change in the assignment of personnel,
provided that such a change does not jeopardize the
ability of the COUNTY to provide services to other areas
of Ramsey County in a timely and efficient manner.
4. Services provided pursuant to this Agreement shall
include, but shall not be limited to, traffic law
enforcement including the regular use of radar as a speed
deterrent, non - traffic ordinance law enforcement, and the
regular patrol of business and residential areas within
the MUNICIPALITY. The COUNTY'S contractual obligation
under this Agreement do not lessen the COUNTY'S
obligation to provide patrol and police protection

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: John D. Pechman, Code Enforcement Official
DATE: December 15, 1995
RE: Taxicab Ordinance, Chapter 810
City staff is recommending that Little Canada discontinue
issuance of taxicab licenses for the following reasons:
* City offices have recently seen a major increase in the
number of taxicab drivers desiring a license. Staff
discovered that receiving a license from Little Canada
was attractive to cab drivers since we grant these
licenses on the same day as application. In addition,
our license fee is on the lower end of the fee scale.
* Many cities have more intense application processes.
In reviewing their ordinances (Bloomington, Brooklyn
Center, Minnetonka, Plymouth, Coon Rapids), I found
many requirements that are not contained in our
ordinance. Some of these are:
- Police background checks on drivers.
- Vehicle inspections conducted by police
department.
- Financial status of applicant (liens or
judgments).
- Limited number of hours to operate per day.
- Certificate of convenience granted by City
Council in order to get license.
- Metered rates and rate cards required in all
cabs.
- Past work experience and reference checks.
- Photo identification cards.
City staff size is too limited to be able to perform
such an extensive application process. In addition,
the ability to effectively administer such an intensive
licensing program at a reasonable cost would not be
feasible.
* The number of surrounding cities that license taxis is
few. White Bear Lake, No. St. Paul and Maplewood
Page 73
Mayor & City Council
December 15, 1995
Page 2
license taxis. However, White Bear Lake has indicated
that they have not had a request for a taxi license in
years, and Maplewood only licenses taxis that are based
within Maplewood. Roseville, Vadnais Heights,
Lauderdale, Shoreview, Mounds View, Falcon Heights and
White Bear Township do not license taxis.
* Procedurally, we have not been following current
ordinance requirements. To do so, would add to
administrative burden.
* We take in less than $1,000 annually with this license.
The effort and potential risk associated with our
implied approval of licensees is not worth that amount.
* The intent of Little Canada's ordinance was to provide
regulated, safe service to the residents of Little
Canada. I discovered that taxi drivers need a license
from two cities in order to receive a license from the
airport. They have no interest in actually serving
Little Canada. I found that as far back as 1993, not
one taxi license has been issued to an address in
Little Canada.
Enclosed is a copy of our ordinance for you to review. Given the
above information, I would recommend discontinuance of such
licensing. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

RE: Exemption from Moratorium to Allow Rehabilitation of the
Market Place Shopping Center
With the pending adoption of the architectural design guidelines
and the planned closing on the acquisition of the Market Place
Shopping Center by Bob Grootwassink and Mark Hotzler, we expect
to be in receipt of the building permit application for the rehab
of the Center on December 27, 1995. Due to the fact that we have
a moratorium in place covering this shopping center as well as
the rest of the Rice Street /Little Canada Road area, we need to
grant an exemption to the moratorium to allow this work to
proceed. Therefore, staff would recommend that Council grant an
exemption to the moratorium for Mr. Grootwassink and Mr. Hotzler
in order to allow the rehabilitation of the Market Place Shopping
Center subject to plans to be submitted, reviewed, and approved
by the City's building official.
The balance of the moratorium can be lifted once rezoning of this
area from B -3 to PUD has occurred. That action is planned for
the month of January.

MAYOR

COUNCIL

Bob Pedersen
ADMINISTRATOR
Joel R. Hanson
As you know, the City solicited proposals for audit services.
Eight proposals were received from qualified auditing firms. Two
firms were selected for interview by Julie Manville -Camp and
myself. The two firms we interviewed were Olson Thielen of
Little Canada and MMKR of Golden Valley. Also in consideration
was our current auditors, Tautges, Redpath Co., Ltd.
After conducting these interviews and upon further discussion
with Tautges, Redpath Co., Ltd., staff is recommending that we
retain Tautges, Redpath Co., Ltd. for our 1995 audit at a maximum
cost not to exceed $17,000. This represents an approximate 20%
reduction in fees payable to them over this past year. The
amount is still somewhat higher than their competitors ( +$1,000),
but given the hidden costs associated with a transition to new
auditors, I feel this is a prudent use of the City's money.
Tautges, Redpath has also indicated to us that additional fees
chargeable for accounting services will be held to a minimum and
advanced notice will be provided should they be incurred.
With this action, the City will continue the trend of reducing
audit and accounting fees. We have had a dramatic impact on this

RE: Amending Ordinance on Mixed Municipal Solid Waste &
Recyclable Materials Storage and Collection, Chapter 809
Attached is the proposed amendment to our ordinance on mixed
municipal solid waste and recyclable materials. This amendment
is being proposed in order to bring our ordinance in line with
the recent changes that were made in our organized collection
contract. In addition, wording within the ordinance was moved
around to make it easier for the public to read and understand.
I have enclosed a copy of the original ordinance for you to
review. Due to the vast amount of additions and changes that
were made to the original ordinance, I was unable to underline
the additions or cross out the changes.
I am recommending passage of the ordinance amendment as presented
subject to any comments of the City Attorney.

Dear Mayor and Council Members:
During my current term of office on the Park & Recreation
Commission, I believe a lot of progress has been made in both
park development and recreation issues. However, there is still
a lot of work to be done. It is my hope to be a part of that
effort.
Therefore, I respectfully request reappointment to another term
of office on the Park & Recreation Commission.
